X2. It's there for a reason and not just for emissions.

I assume the code for the O2 is gone now? What other codes are stored?
A vacuum gauge can tell you a lot, not only about vacuum system integrity but valve issues, restricted exhaust.....cylinder compression might be a good thing to check also.

The code has not cleared yet but it is running better now i just have to figure out and fix the fact that the front end wanders and and get some swaybar end links and replace the front axle ujoints
